m0e

The generally accepted term for a non-paying user who signs on to a Diversi-Dial system. The term is triggered partially due to the idea that when a person logs in to the DDial system, there is no handle assigned to the anonymous person.

A m0e is usually either:

A user who can't pay for a password and tries to join in the conversation with the others.

A person, in an anonymous fashion, wants to harass the other people.

The random computer and modem owning person who somehow ended up dialing this system and has no idea what is going on.

While the term was widely accepted and used in the New Jersey network of DDial systems, it is not clear if it extended beyond those systems.

A m0e isn't necessarily a bad thing, it just isn't quite a good thing.
